The young girl's mother stressed that the officer should no longer be allowed to work at the Texas school.

A Texas school police officer has been placed on administrative leave after a video shows him picking up a sixth-grade and slamming her to the ground.

According to CBS DFW, a recently released video shared on social media shows 12-year-old Mariana Benton and another young girl fighting on the grounds of Piedmont G.L.O.B.A.L Academy School in Dallas. Not too soon after, an uniformed Dallas Independent School District officer tried to separate the two before he picked up Mariana and slammed her to the ground.

“The officer came and grabbed me and body slammed me,” Mariana told NBC. “He pepper sprayed me in the eyes and I couldn’t open my eyes because it was burning me.”

She added: “It makes me mad, angry. She’s 12 years old. She weighs 100 pounds. He should be fired.”

The school district placed the officer on administrative leave, but refused to release the officer’s name. However, school officials stressed that the officer’s actions did not appear to “represent the type of response we want our officers to display.”

According to the New York Daily News, this isn’t the first time the school district has come under fire for its alleged brutality against students. They also recently made headlines after a 7-year-old boy was reportedly handcuffed by an officer at Gabe P. Allen Charter School for acting.

I see it’s a bunch of racist white bigots on here. If somebody was to slam one of your white or redneck children you would have a shit fit. All black people are not angry.anger comes in many colors and many races. Are you asswipe Whiteys on here, need to shut up take a seat suck rocks drop dead. Some of you people are a bunch of ignorant assholes. Peace out idiots

Doesn’t someone love black people enough to tell them to listen to the police? Here’s where it gets really bad: if this violent colored girl had broken her clavicle fighting another out of control violent black privileged girl, nothing would have been said. Stop the black privilege double standard.
